An estimated 10 million residents of Nairobi and satellite towns could benefit from an enhanced mass transport system after the formation of the implementing authority by President Uhuru Kenyatta.

It is expected that the dedicated bus lines and a commuter rail system linking Nairobi to parts of Kajiado, Machakos, Kiambu and Murang’a would cost Sh4.5 billion.
